| wildmanaaron | Sep 22, 2007 08:14 PM | One Day It Will Run, The Next It Won't??? I have a 1999 Camaro LS-1 and 4l60E in a 1981 Blazer 2WD. I am using a stock fuel tank from a Blazer that had fuel injection as well as the FI sending unit and an AC-Delco EP-241 fuel pump. All of these parts where brand new when installed and my Blazer has not been driven yet, just started and let idle for around 5-10 mins tops since the swap. Monday of last week, the engine cranked and started right up. It wasn't ready to me driven just yet so I shut it off. Then 2-3 days later this past week I went out and tried to start it up. You can hear the fuel pump run for the usual two seconds when you first turn on the ignition but the engine does not turn over. You can hear the engine trying to start but it seems as if there is no fuel getting to the injectors.
I took the line off of the fuel rail and tried to start it again to see if the rail was getting fuel and it did not. So I started from the back of the Truck to make sure I had the right line on my Corvette FFR. The lines were plugged in right and the pressure line sprayed a little fuel out when I turned the key on. I did this at the front side of the FFR and at the last line at my frame that stops for a braided line that goes to the fuel rail. I even tried a long piece of flex line that would reach all the way back to my FFR from the fuel rail just in case the line that I originally was using was bad or clogged...I am out of options and do not know what to do.
Could the fuel pump that I am using not have enough power now to send fuel to the rail and to the injectors?? The engine was running good when I first got it started last week and then this past Monday. |
